Suggest Treatment For Persistent Knee Pain

(PS: I'm working in BITS Pilani, Pilani right now and hospital facilities are not good)
Please detail about your problem and request you to answer my questions
Detailed Answer:
Hi there.
Thanks for the query.
Do you have knee pain? How often?
Do you have pain in the front of the knee of climbing stairs?
Any difficulty in straightening the knee?
Any knee pain while squatting or cross leg sitting?
Since you have read about Runners knee, I need not brief much on that. I would like to talk about the other causes of knee pain like meniscus cartilage damage, stress fractures, overuse syndromes etc.
Avoid climbing stairs or uphill in treadmill or cross trainer. Perform quadriceps strengthening exercises static. Apply ice to the affected region. Take Calcium supplements. Perform warm up before any exercise.
These can be a cause of your problem so it would be helpful if you would take the time to answer my questions, and I shall help rule out your diagnosis and suggest an appropriate treatment plan.
I hope I have answered your query.
I will be available to answer your follow up queries.
Regards,
Dr. Aashish Raghu
